Mixines (mixinos) (hagfishes) > Myxiniformes (Hagfishes) > Myxinidae (Hagfishes) > Eptatretinae
Etymology: Eptatretus: hepta (Gr.), seven; tretos (Gr.), perforated (i.e., with holes), referring to seven gill apertures on what would later be described as Homea banksii (=E. cirrhatus) [range within genus is 6-14 pairs of gill apertures]. (See ETYFish); goslinei: In honor of John M. Gosline (1944-2016), University of British Columbia, who “pioneered” work on the biomechanics of hagfish slime. (See ETYFish).

Short description Claves de identificación | Morfología | Morfometría

This species is distinguished from all congeners, except E. astrolabium, E. caribbaeus, E. carlhubbsi, E. cirrhatus, E. cryptus, E. goliath, E. laurahubbsae, E. menezesi, E. strahani, by having seven pairs of gill apertures well spaced and arranged in a near straight line; differs from these seven-gilled congeners by the number of anterior unicusps 9-12 (vs. 13-17 in E. carlhubbsi, E. laurahubbsae); total cusps 47-58 (vs. 61-71 in E. carlhubbsi, 61-68 in E. laurahubbsae); total pores 65-72 (vs. 83-84 in E. astrolabium, 79-85 in E. caribbeaus, 93-110 in E. carlhubbsi, 82-91 in E. cirrhatus, 78-86 in E. cryptus, 89-95 in E. goliath, 97-105 in E. laurahubbsae, 86-94 in E. menezesi, 76-86 in E. strahani); and by having two bilaterally symmetrical nasal-sinus papillae (vs. absence of nasal sinus papillae in E. astrolabium, E. caribbeaus) (Ref. 123790).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = No PD50 data [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00204 (0.00092 - 0.00452), b=2.93 (2.73 - 3.13), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 4.0 ±0.7 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Medio, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo de 1.4-4.4 años (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (26 of 100).
